Post subject:  Right hand tank pattern

Has anyone got a pattern / measurements for the right hand tank fitment? I need to cut the hole to fit the tank and want to make sure I get it right :shock:

cheers,

CJ

Just trace it on to a piece of paper and reverse it for the right hand side.
I hope that makes sense , when you start doing it you will see how easy it is .

LOL, Yeh , Simple enough but not correct.
The Right hand tank hole position on a cooper s is not the Mirror Image of the Left hand Side.

Here is what you need................

The right hand side tank aperture is 6mm closer to the centre of the car and at the same height as the left hand aperture. Most people putting in a right hand tank just use a mirror image of the LHS so any issues would've shown up by now.
